The Hall Master's expression immediately froze upon hearing Mo Lin's words.
Mo Lin recounted everything he had experienced to the Hall Master.
After listening, the Hall Master's expression turned completely stiff.
"I'll go take a look." So the Hall Master personally took people to check the situation in the east.
About an hour later, the Hall Master returned with a mournful face.
Exactly as Mo Lin said, there was indeed a night expanding bit by bit.
Moreover, he obtained some useful information.
Whether it's a ghost or a person, they'll die instantly upon entering the night.
There won't be any exceptions.
Mo Lin immediately recalled the red leather piece the Hall Master showed him earlier.
This paper had a sentence written on it.
"When they invade the Human Realm, the people here will no longer be human."
"Hall Master, the two sheets you asked me to see earlier, where did you get them?" Mo Lin asked the Hall Master.
"I got them from an underground palace in the east."
The Hall Master, thinking of something, said to Mo Lin, "How about I take you there once more?
See if we can obtain any useful information?"
"Alright." Mo Lin nodded.
So the Hall Master took Mo Lin along with over three hundred people to the underground palace.
The journey went smoothly, taking only about thirty minutes before they arrived at the entrance of the underground palace.
The entrance was narrow, barely enough for one person to squeeze through.
Mo Lin and the others entered the underground palace one after another.
The Hall Master took out a high-power flashlight he had prepared in advance to illuminate the space.
The walls were adorned with some ancient paintings.
They were sketches.
All depicting people who had died tragically.
Their deaths were bizarre in countless ways.
They arrived at the deepest part of the cave.
This area spanned over a hundred square meters.
On the expansive ground lay a skeletal corpse.
"It was here where I obtained those two sheets of leather." The Hall Master pointed to the dark gray stone platform in front of them, speaking to Mo Lin slowly.
Mo Lin glanced at the dark gray stone platform.
There didn't seem to be anything unusual here.
Beside the stone platform lay two other items.
A Peach Wood Sword, and a Copper Coin.
Just simple Dao Treasures.
For Mo Lin, they were of no use.
Only capable of repelling low-level Little Ghosts.
Mo Lin wandered around a few more times but still didn't find anything useful.
Mo Lin took the Peach Wood Sword and Copper Coin then left with the Hall Master.
"Hall Master, you should lead your people and leave the Netherworld King Hall," Mo Lin urged the Hall Master.
If the Hall Master didn't leave, with the night expanding bit by bit, it wouldn't be long before it consumed the entire Netherworld King Hall.
"I'll think about it." The Hall Master replied to Mo Lin.
He currently didn't have any better options.
If things didn't work out, he would choose to leave the Netherworld King Hall.
The night was just too eerie.
Without understanding the darkness, it was better not to act rashly.
"Who knows where Cui Xinyun has gone. Could it be she has already entered the darkness?"
The Hall Master murmured towards the direction of the darkness, "It shouldn't be..."
Upon hearing the Hall Master's words, Mo Lin's heart trembled violently.
Mo Lin decided to go to Jiangzhou Dao, the trading area, to find the shadow for information.
The shadow might know something.
So Mo Lin bid farewell to the Hall Master and headed to the Jiangzhou Dao trading area.
Upon arriving at the trading area, Mo Lin discovered a piece of information that was hard for him to accept.
It was gone.
The trading area had disappeared, along with the shadow.
Nothing was left.
Mo Lin reluctantly returned to Great Spirit Mountain.
On Great Spirit Mountain, over three thousand Daoist Cultivators had already gathered.
These people had recently chosen to affiliate themselves here.
"Mo Lin, have you heard about the night in the east?" Wu Binghai asked Mo Lin.
"I know."
"Many ordinary people have been consumed by the night, and they're all dead. Do you have any solution?" Wu Binghai inquired Mo Lin.
The surrounding people all cast curious glances at Mo Lin, hoping to get some useful information from him.
"I have no solution either. The darkness not only kills people, but also ghosts."
Mo Lin had known about the darkness earlier than anyone else.
As for how to deal with the darkness, or how to survive from it, he had no idea.
At night, around seven o'clock.
"Mo Lin, there's news from the Netherworld King Hall," Zhen Lingling slowly informed Mo Lin.
"What news?"
"They said Human Immortal, Cui Xinyun, entered the darkness and died."
Zhen Lingling truthfully told Mo Lin.
She only conveyed what she knew to Mo Lin, nothing more.
Whether Cui Xinyun truly died or feigned death...that was unknown.
Anyway, that's what the Netherworld King Hall claimed.
Mo Lin felt a jolt in his heart, deeply distressed, as if knives were stabbing his heart.
The pain was indescribable.
"Dead? How is that possible!"
"She was a Human Immortal! How could she die?"
Mo Lin was unwilling to accept this reality.
Cui Xinyun had only gone to seek the Divine Fire, how could she die?
"Gather everyone; accompany me to West Mountain."
Mo Lin prepared to seek revenge against Xin Ziruo.
After dealing with Xin Ziruo thoroughly, he would search for Cui Xinyun next.
Mo Lin couldn't believe Cui Xinyun could be dead.
After receiving Mo Lin's message, Wu Binghai gathered over three thousand Daoist Cultivators, ready to accompany Mo Lin to West Mountain.
Another accident occurred.
Mo Lin's phone rang; it was the Hall Master of the Netherworld King Hall calling.
"Lord Mo Lin, come quickly to the Netherworld King Hall, I've found Cui Xinyun, please hurry over."
With the speakerphone on, Wu Binghai and others beside Mo Lin could all hear the Hall Master's words.
"At this moment, the Hall Master of the Netherworld King Hall is calling?"
Wu Binghai frowned and said slowly.
"I feel there's something wrong here."
Another man also followed along, saying, "We're about to go to West Mountain, and he's calling now?"
"What a coincidence?"
Mo Lin didn't know what was happening either, "Zhen Lingling, you guard Great Spirit Mountain; I'm going to the Netherworld King Hall."
Mo Lin was extremely concerned about Cui Xinyun's situation.
So he had no choice but to personally visit the Netherworld King Hall to check.
Three hours later, Mo Lin arrived at the Netherworld King Hall.
The Hall Master of the Netherworld King Hall had a face full of anxiety, "Mo Lin, you've finally arrived. I've found Cui Xinyun. Please, follow me quickly."
Thus the Hall Master led the way upfront, while Mo Lin closely followed behind him.
The two arrived at the location before the eastern night.
"Come over."
The Hall Master gestured to Mo Lin.
Just as Mo Lin stepped forward, the Hall Master used force from behind to push Mo Lin into the darkness.
"Die."
The Hall Master mocked Mo Lin, "To tell you the truth, I pushed Cui Xinyun inside as well.
A year ago, I knew about the darkness but just didn't tell you."
The Hall Master spoke slowly to the beautiful figure behind.
"Xin Ziruo, I've fulfilled my promise to you."
Xin Ziruo emerged from the darkness, displaying a gentle smile.
"Very good, I'll grant you a spot to enter the Cloud Immortal Realm," Xin Ziruo responded to the Hall Master.
Then the two left.
Upon entering the darkness, in the next moment, darkness surged around Mo Lin.
A viscous liquid enveloped Mo Lin's body.
